Argentine Ants

Each worker  plods up

Bearing earth into  the light

Lives the  labyrinth

Pour tons of  concrete

Into the hidden city:

When set, reveal

The network divides

Ramifies  from nest  to  nest

Borders  bedrock,  seas

Limited  by  food

Precious juggernauts of queens

Realms of genes

Thousands  of, billions

Of, innumerable armies:

Only  Armageddon

True apocalypse

Halts  the  silent progress

Massing conquests below
